A Club For Owners Of MXR and MXR/Dunlop Pedals

[ValveTubeHead]

OMG that Dunlop Tremolo was the BEST tremolo pedal I ever owned. I had one of the original, first run pedals years ago. I got lost in a move and I was distraught.

Used ones are still priced nice! Love the big guy.

I remember a rig rundown with Sonny Landreth where he talked about using a Dyna Comp after his drive pedals to retain volume when switching to a clean tone. I've never tried that but it sounds good in theory.

I have a phase 90
And Dunlop Gary Clark jr Wah

I used to have a Classic Distortion that I got used for $20 somewhere. I used it a few years ago as trade-in bait at GC to get 20 percent off my purchase. It was a nice pedal, but I already had a Rat on my board and needed a lower gain, transparent OD.

I currently have an Mxr Timmy and a mini cry baby on my gig board. I also have a Dunlop Echoplex on my home board. They are a few of my favorite pedals. For gigs, I prefer the flexibility of my Deluxe Memory Man TT, but if I ever needed to keep it really simple and light, I could easily and happily gig with just the Timmy and the Echoplex.

I have a Dyna Comp and a germanium Fuzz Face. Do I get to play?

It dont get much better than that!

I had a Rochester block face Phase 90. A friend gifted me an official “Paperweight” pedal housing (the sound is so transparent, it will blow your mind) -

On my pedalboard, I have a Carbon Copy.

 

[Blackmore Fan]

I have a chance to pick up a Custum Badass 78 Distortion for $40. I use the MXR Classic OD for overdrive and a Rat clone for distortion. Is it worth picking up the 78 Distortion, or is it redundant?

I would in a heartbeat.

Mini Phase 90
..very old Dunlop Cry Baby that I don't really use

and just bought a second DC Brick power supply for a second pedal board.

 

[Peteurre]

Carbon Copy, Dyna Comp and Classic 108 Fuzz mini. I love them all! The Fuzz is not on my grab and go pedalboard, but I'll put it in front of the board, if I need it. Carbon Copy and DynaComp...I do not see them leaving my board, ever!

Hi my name is LowEndManipulator and I am an MXR pedal junkie.

Bass Envelope Filter, Bass Compressor, Brown Acid Fuzz, Six Band Eq, Phase 95, Analog Chorus and Bass D.I+

 

[Brent Hutto]

OK, I've completed my set. Blue (Teal), Red, Orange, Yellow Dunlop/MXR pedals.

I almost added a green GT-OD but have just about decided to go off the Dunlop reservation and get an actual Tube Screamer (or at least a TS9) to cover that color.

CC Mini and Micro Amp +, here. Both are great at what they do.

I can't say enough good things about the AnalogMan-modded Maxon OD-9. I bought one and I no longer worry about a Tube Screamer. I'm sure I'll buy ANOTHER Tube Screamer, but I've got the base one covered.

Back in 1975 Betty had both the Littlewoods and Kays catalogues. One of them had the MXR Distortion+ and Dunlop Crybaby. The D+ was £45 and the Crybaby might have been £30. At the time my student accommodation rent was £12 a week inclusive of meals and laundry. The Crybaby stopped working maybe 20 years ago, I should investigate fixing it, though I never mastered it's use. The D+ gets occasional use, though the lack of a 9v power input restricts things. I probably should sell it and buy a new one.

Somebody might pay you as much for your "classic" Dist+ as it'll cost for a new one with a 9V outlet. Crumbling foam 'n all!

 

[Bourbon Burst]

I have the MXR 300 reverb, MXR Carbon Copy, MXR Univibe and a Dunlop Fuzz Face. All nice pedals.

There's one on eBay at £1,272. They won't get anywhere near that but plenty seem to go in the £200-£400 range.

Good grief!
